arch/alpha/include/cmpxchg.h:
#define arch_cmpxchg(ptr, o, n) \
({ \
__typeof__(*(ptr)) __ret; \
__typeof__(*(ptr)) _o_ = (o); \
__typeof__(*(ptr)) _n_ = (n); \
smp_mb(); \
__ret = (__typeof__(*(ptr))) __cmpxchg((ptr), \
(unsigned long)_o_, (unsigned long)_n_, sizeof(*(ptr)));\
smp_mb(); \
__ret; \
})
Are those smp_mb() in there enough?
I'm probably missing your point, though - what mix of cmpxchg and
smp_store_release on 8bit values?
